Film-maker documents Obama's childhood

Director Damien Dematra is basing his movie on a fictionalised account of Obama's childhood that he published earlier this year, using interviews with neighbours and friends of Obama and his family. The movie will be in both English and the Indonesian language.

"We want to show the world that Obama lived in Indonesia's pluralistic environment, with different religions and races, and his experiences of pluralism led him to become a great man," Dematra said.
